Resubmitting malformed AfD on behalf of User:Marsbar8 162 etc. (talk) 07:19, 3 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
According to the talK page, this page is not needed and should be deleted. For one, the rapper's name is not walkies, but walkie. Marsbar8 (talk) 20:46, 2 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- Procedural close the disambiguation page can be combined for both singular and plural forms and the page in question is requested to be moved to "walkie", which if done would make the deletion rationale moot. Therefore this AfD is too soon, considering a different consensus seeking process is underway that could renamed said page to "walkie" or "walkie (disambiguation)". Also, this nomination is malformed and not nominated correctly, so should at least be closed until the name of said page is determined. The nominator can renominate later, after the move request is processed. -- 65.92.244.249 (talk) 04:01, 3 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. "Walkies" appears to be a term for dog-walking, although I don't see any evidence of it in reliable secondary sources. The current disambiguation page serves no discernible purpose. 162 etc. (talk) 07:24, 3 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- "Walkies" does indeed refer to dog-walking in UK English; it's defined that way in OED2 with the first example being from 1939. Adam Sampson (talk) 10:35, 3 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep per ongoing RM at talk page. This is a valid dab as it disambiguates several topics with the name. – Uanfala (talk) 14:33, 4 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete This word is not mentioned in what it disambiguates. See WP:NOR. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 21:43, 9 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

- I'm fine with deletion. The hat on Walkie-talkie would just be changed to dab to the rapper. SWinxy (talk) 20:56, 14 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
